Castle Ruin Aggstein / Burgruine Aggstein

in #photography5 years ago (edited)

We have visited an old castle ruin in the Wachau above the Danube last weekend.

Wir haben letztes Wochenende eine alte Burgruine in der Wachau oberhalb der Donau besucht.

Castle Ruin Aggstein / Burgruine Aggstein
Wachau - Lower Austria

On the left side of the castle you can see the village Aggsbach Markt on the other side of the Danube and on the right the villages Groisbach and Willendorf in the Wachau can be seen.

Links von der Burg sieht man auf der anderen Seite der Donau die Ortschaft Aggsbach Markt und rechts sind die Ortschaften Groisbach und Willendorf in der Wachau zu erkennen.

The castle is about 150 meters (492 feet) long and was built in the 12th century on a rock spur about 300 meters (984 feet) above the right bank of the Danube River in today's municipality of Schönbühel-Aggsbach (Wachau, district Melk, Lower Austria).

The chapel of the castle can be used for baptisms or for weddings.
For the physical well, there is a tavern where you can find both down-to-earth fare, fine cuisine and medieval dishes on the menu. Cooked is in the medieval castle kitchen preferred with products from regional production.

In the various areas and rooms of the ruins Aggstein there is much information about the castle and living in the castle, as well as an exhibition about the Nibelung.

Die Kapelle der Burg kann für Taufen oder auch für Hochzeiten genutzt werden.
Für das leibliche Wohl gibt es eine Taverne, wo man sowohl bodenständige Kost, als auch gehobene Küche oder mittelalterliche Gerichte auf der Speisekarte finden kann. Gekocht wird in der mittelalterlichen Burgküche bevorzugt mit Produkten aus regionaler Erzeugung.

In den verschiedenen Bereichen und Räumen der Burgruine Aggstein gibt es viele Informationen zur Burg und zum Leben auf der Burg, sowie auch eine Nibelungenausstellung.

It was a relatively cloudy day, but the rain clouds left room for the sun from time to time.

Es war ein relativ bewölkter Tag, aber die Regenwolken ließen hin und wieder auch Platz für die Sonne.
